Lorenzo passalacqua, Avalanche (AERIAL 2024)

"AVALANCHE" captures the raw and exhilarating experience of surfers navigating the immense power of ocean waves. Through an aerial perspective, these images depict surfers as they ride the waves, evoking the sensation of escaping an impending avalanche. The title reflects the dynamic and unpredictable nature of both the ocean and snow-covered mountains. This series aims to transport viewers to a snowy mountaintop, drawing parallels between the adrenaline-fueled moments of a surfer and the awe-inspiring grandeur of an avalanche. Through these photographs, I seek to convey the intensity, beauty, and ephemeral nature of these encounters, allowing the audience to feel the rush and respect the might of nature in both its forms.
